Today’s Jesus and Mo strip, called “hard2”, is “a resurrection today, from way back in 2006.” Eighteen years old: it’s been going a long time! The boys are listing the many reasons they hate atheists, but of course Mo just proves the atheists’ claims.
But Jesus says that he does not hate the barmaid. Maybe it is possible for others atheists to not be hated by Jesus 🙂
Rather than exclaiming “Christ!” I think Jesus should say “Me!”
:o)
The Sunk Cost Fallacy — you’ve invested so much it actually seems wrong to pull out. It’s one of reasons religion has had such a strong hold on people.
They’ve done experiments where subjects were arbitrarily assigned to two different “clubs;” one side demanded that each member complete difficult tasks said to be necessary for membership and the other club everyone just played games and relaxed. At the end of the experiment only the subjects in the first group thought the club was valuable, were proud to be in it, and didn’t want to leave.
Bang your head on the floor five times a day, end up thinking a rule to do so makes sense.
There’s a huge sunk cost for the parents of children that they have helped “transition” – they’ll be the last to accept the reality about “gender-affirming” care.
Excellent comment. Thanks!
